Hyundai Motor, Samsung to use Private 5G RedCap Technology
Hyundai Motor Company has announced that it has successfully completed a pilot project for Private 5G (P-5G) RedCap (Reduced Capability) technology in partnership with Samsung Electronics. The company will showcase the technology at MWC25 Barcelona, the world's largest IT and electronics exhibition, which will be held in Spain from March 3 to 6. As a leader in future mobility, Hyundai Motor advances smart mobility solutions through electrification, software-driven capabilities, and smart manufacturing technologies. To achieve this, the company has collaborated with Samsung, a global leader in network solutions, to become the first in the mobility manufacturing sector to verify P-5G RedCap technology. 'Hyundai Motor was the first Korean company to implement P-5G in mass production,' said Jae Min Lee, Vice President and Head of E-FOREST Center of Hyundai Motor and Kia. 'We are also the industry's first to verify P-5G RedCap technology, reinforcing our global leadership in smart manufacturing solutions. We will continue to accelerate its commercialisation.' P-5G is a dedicated system installed onsite using a specific frequency band, ensuring no external interference and seamless data transmission — essential for smart manufacturing with centralised control of industrial robots and devices. It can be tailored for optimised environments and stable communication, though challenges like complex design and high power consumption remain. The collaboration successfully verified the P-5G RedCap technology, which offers simplified device configurations, compact infrastructure, and reduced bandwidth usage. This results in lower power consumption, cost efficiency, and improved performance over traditional Wi-Fi in speed, data processing, connection stability, and low latency. Previously limited to high-performance equipment, RedCap technology now enables high-speed wireless communication for vehicle inspection equipment, small tools, cameras and tablets. Hyundai Motor integrated RedCap enabled Qualcomm's Snapdragon® X35 5G Modem-RF System chipsets into its Diagnostic Scan (D Scan) system for efficient vehicle inspection data transmission via Samsung's 5G network. Samsung's P-5G solution, with support for optimized RedCap software, reduces power consumption and more than doubles uplink capacity for real-time IoT data transmission, featuring an integrated management system for automation. Hyundai Motor is enhancing its smart manufacturing capabilities through collaboration with global network leaders and the implementation of RedCap technology. After establishing a P-5G testbed in Korea in late 2022, the company applied the technology in mass production at its plant in Ulsan in October 2024, deploying dozens of automated guided vehicles. At Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America (HMGMA), the company adapted its P-5G to meet local regulations, enabling the efficient operation of over 200 autonomous mobile robots. The implementation of the technology at its plants in Korea and the US has significantly reduced communication disruptions and downtime. Hyundai Motor also developed a patented dual wireless communication solution combining 5G networks with Wi-Fi, leading to zero communication-related downtime since its deployment.

NTT DATA and Palo Alto Networks enhance private 5G security for industrial deployments
NTT DATA, a global leader in digital business and IT services, recently announced a new managed security service powered by Palo Alto Networks industry-leading technologies to enhance private 5G security in industrial and operational technology (OT) environments. Delivered as a turnkey managed service, the innovative offering provides enterprises with a Private 5G network with the visibility and security needed in today's OT environments. Combining Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW), OT/ IOT subscriptions with NTT DATA's Private 5G architecture, the new offering empowers clients with improved network visibility, access control and automated threat detection and response capabilities. With Palo Alto Networks NGFW, organisations can apply a Zero Trust security posture, incorporating machine learning (ML) to safely enable only the relevant connections, applications and protocols needed for their network. The NTT DATA Private 5G and Palo Alto Networks offering is easy to set up and manage, seamlessly integrating into enterprise IT/OT environments, allowing organisations to focus on new ideas and innovation while ensuring a high level of security. 'NTT DATA and Palo Alto Networks are creating a new standard for private 5G security and changing what's possible for industrial connectivity', said Shahid Ahmed, Group EVP of Edge Services at NTT DATA. 'By combining Palo Alto Networks advanced cybersecurity capabilities with NTT DATA Private 5G, we're empowering enterprises to securely embrace the next wave of digital transformation and drive innovation with confidence'. Private 5G networks are transforming industries such as manufacturing, healthcare and transportation. They bring fast and reliable connectivity to the edge and deliver seamless and secure communication in complex industrial environments. According to the 2024 State of OT Security report from Palo Alto Networks and ABI Research, 70% of industrial organisations experienced a cyberattack on their OT environment in the last year. Almost 25% of these organizations suffered attacks that led to operational shutdowns and disrupted business continuity. Tackling the visibility gap While private 5G networks are secure by design, features such as end-to-end encryption, which hides communications between devices to ensure the data is private and secure, can hide threats. This can limit deep visibility into network traffic and device activity, leaving security teams unable to proactively monitor and detect threats effectively. 'As security threats continue to rise across industries, enterprises are facing increased challenges protecting their critical infrastructure and data. The rapid expansion of IoT and OT devices is further compounding these risks creating a growing attack surface. Yet, companies still see security as an add on when it needs to be built into the initial design of the network. This is where Private 5G with its inherent security features and advanced measures are making security an integral part of the network', said Alejandro Cadenas, Associate Vice President at IDC. With this news, NTT DATA and Palo Alto Networks are solving this challenge. This unique offering provides: Real-time visibility: Clients can now gain insights into encrypted data from connected devices, traffic patterns and communications. Device profiling: Machine learning algorithms identify and analyse IoT and OT devices based on behaviour and risk. Zero trust security: Strict access controls ensure only authorised devices and applications can communicate. Automated threat detection: AI-driven tools quickly detect and remediate threats. Fully managed service: NTT DATA offers the solution as a fully managed service, bringing experience in both private 5G and network security to new and existing clients. 'As enterprises embrace 5G to accelerate digital transformation, security must be the cornerstone of that evolution', said Anand Oswal, SVP and GM, Network Security at Palo Alto Networks. 'Through our partnership with NTT DATA, we are enabling enterprises to fast-track their digital transformation with confidence by securing their networks and protecting critical data'. Tailored for industrial connectivity The new managed service is designed for industries that rely on secure, connected environments. Manufacturers can monitor devices and mitigate risks in real-time, energy companies can safeguard critical systems and transport operators can protect against disruptions to keep operations running smoothly. Roularta Media Group recently adopted NTT DATA's Private 5G network to modernise its global printing facilities and enable new use cases such as intelligent asset tracking and push-to-talk communications to streamline operations and improve productivity. The company is intrigued with making its OT network more secure. 'We recently deployed NTT DATA's Private 5G network to improve productivity across our facilities and unlock innovative use cases across our global printing operations. The implications of this network security enhancement will be a game changer for our business', said Luc Neysens, CIO of Roularta Media Group. Image Credit: NTT DATA
